Electric scooter or moped?
They may look related, but they belong in different legal lanes.
Electric scooter: shared-path scale
The county’s updated rules allow electric play vehicles under defined path conditions, including a 15 mph cap and pedestrian right of way.
Moped: road vehicle rules
A qualifying 49cc moped follows traffic law, requires a valid license or permit and DOT helmet, and stays off sidewalks and multi-use paths.
Choose for the trip
Use the electric scooter for compact, approved path-and-neighborhood movement. Choose the moped only when comfortable operating a two-wheel road vehicle.
